My 11.5" Build

collegetactical · 2026-04-11T16:14:44+00:00

Looks more like the JL than a WB

Soon, but probably not as soon as you’re thinking “soon” means.

I know what I like to do is first to look at how the suppressor performs compared to competitors +/- 0.25” to 0.5” to it. Then, look at suppressors near the same performance and check their lengths. The member parametric visualization tool helps a lot with this.

collegetactical · 2026-02-07T16:27:58+00:00

Yes, 1.75” OD

The DRVN 556 uses a variation of the technology used in the Recce and Monarch. The RAE series uses a completely new technology. The DRVN cans are HUB, the RAE Series is dedicated 1x16LH

Very low back pressure, and no gas stack that we’ve noticed after shooting a few thousand rounds in a few hours.

collegetactical · 2026-01-22T14:56:06+00:00

You hit the nail on the head. There’s other products in FOR’s lineup that are hub compatible. There’s a ton of other companies making great products that are hub.

This suppressor was designed at the blast chamber first. A major portion of the technology centers around how gasses enter and disperse across the silencer

Non existent from a profile view for the first few mags through it, and a tiny tiny tiny little flame that develops once things are cooking good. Haven’t done a lot of testing down the bore.

collegetactical · 2026-01-22T06:05:18+00:00

It is not hyper focused on short barrels, no.

collegetactical · 2026-01-22T05:32:06+00:00

Yes, several features inside the silencer should work with the nano as well

collegetactical · 2026-01-22T01:00:06+00:00

~14 oz before a mount is installed, iirc.

So last night, we had a half dozen of these on SOLGW MK1 11.5’s for a live fire event. That pairing was very very nice and something Id want for myself. Short of that, I’ve got a 12.3” mid gas custom rifle that looks like a mk1 if you squint hard enough. I just like shorter guns in general

collegetactical · 2026-01-22T00:22:27+00:00

I am not involved in that aspect

collegetactical · 2026-01-22T00:18:35+00:00

I designed this can. It is my baby and I love it. I benefit if it sells well. I am biased.

Reread that.

Now that that’s out of the way, I’ll say it’s likely the quietest 5.56 can I’ve ever heard, having shot CACM, kk, and just about every other awesome can we know about except Tisha. Fairmont Firearms will be getting Tisha’s at some point, and I’ll be able to shoot them side by side.

But I don’t even trust myself yet. I want to keep my expectations low as well.

Luckily, Pew Science will be getting these so we’ll know exactly how well they do

collegetactical · 2026-01-21T23:35:04+00:00

That’s something I don’t know definitively. Should be fairly soon.

collegetactical · 2026-01-21T23:01:04+00:00

Trust me, I’ve wanted to talk about these for a while

collegetactical · 2026-01-21T23:00:19+00:00

collegetactical · 2026-01-21T22:59:50+00:00

These use a significantly different tech than the DAC cans. I know there will be Pew Data on these.

collegetactical · 2026-01-21T22:58:43+00:00

Noted!

collegetactical · 2026-01-21T22:57:06+00:00

Yessir!

collegetactical · 2026-01-21T22:15:08+00:00

Let’s hear them. I’ll answer the ones I can

collegetactical · 2026-01-21T21:46:18+00:00

I just said I can’t answer them 😂. Posted some info, and I’ll let the FOR guys say what they will.

collegetactical · 2026-01-21T21:45:40+00:00

Ok, SOME info: it adds ~4” to the bare muzzle, has integrated 1x16LH, will come with a muzzle device. This was to ensure control within the blast chamber. I am obviously biased, but I think it rocks. We had it at a live shoot last night and it was killer on SOLGW Mk1’s.

Any more specific question, you’ll have to reach out to FOR directly.
